Find the sum of the infinite geometric sequence that begins 1/12, 1/18, 1/27, …

Mathematics

Agata [3.3K]1 year ago

Answer:

  1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an infinite geometric series is given by the formula ...

  S = a/(1 -r)

where 'a' is the first term, and r is the common ratio.

<h3>Application</h3>

Here, the first term is 1/12, and the common ratio is ...

  (1/18)/(1/12) = 12/18 = 2/3

Then the sum is ...

  S = (1/12)/(1 -2/3) = (1/12)/(1/3) = 3/12 = 1/4

The sum of the infinite series is 1/4.

Inverse of y=log(x+1)
atroni [7]
f(x) = log(x + 1)
y = log(x + 1)
x = log(y + 1)
10^{x} = y + 1
10^{x} - 1 = y
10^{x} - 1 = f^{-1}(x)

A quadrilateral has two angles that measure 31° and 249°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:17. What are the measures of
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the measure of the other 2 angles.  The angles of a quadrilateral all add up to equl 360, so:

360 - 249 - 31 = 80

The other 2 angles add up to equal 80 degrees.  If these angles exist in a 3:17 ratio, then algebraically,

3x + 17x = 80 and

20x = 80 so

x = 4.  That means that one angle is 3(4) = 12 and the other angle is 17(4) = 68.

249 + 31 + 12 + 68 = 360.

I don't know what I am doing help please (C:
NeX [460]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The far right side of the triangle is 17 cm, which is the height.

The base would be 34 minus 17 because whole length of the rectangle is 34 and the triangle covers all but 17 of it.

So then you would take 1/2 of 17.

Then multiply it by 17 to get 160.5
